Résumé

The Panditarajasataka is an anthology of Sanskrit poems composed by poets, both famous and unknown, from all over India. This first nagari edition includes dozens of poems never before published, as well as unique versions of well-known classics. The introduction provides a cogent argument about why the work was composed, showing how, by selection and alteration, specific poems were made to fit the anthologist's overarching goal: to provide poets with a collection that will help them impress rulers and win patronage. The critical apparatus traces each poem's origin and includes their variations down through history. Lovers of kavya literature will be glad to add this translation of highly alliterative verses to their shelves.
